Cinderella… Best Way To Learn About The Renaissance

Ever After was an exemplary way of showing the Renaissance by the unique fashion, beautiful art, and the way of life. For fashion, the sumptuary laws and types of clothes worn were what they showed the most. For art, the importance of art, the type of art, and artists is what this film mostly targeted. Throughout this movie, it showed the way of life perfectly through the social life, royalty, fighting, and everyday life. This movie clearly reflected the life of the Renaissance… especially the fashion.

During the movie, the fashion of the Renaissance was clearly displayed. First off it was shown that the rich and noble people had better clothes than the poor and servants. The important people had better …show more content…

That was well displayed in the movie. During the time of the Renaissance, everyone deeply appreciated art. One example of how they praised art was when the Mona Lisa was stolen the prince went after the thief and fought him and almost fell off a cliff. That showed that even royalty would die in a fight for art. The architecture in this movie, castles, houses (rich and poor houses), pillars, and other architectural items, were exactly how it was back in the Renaissance. Leonardo da Vinci was portrayed just like how he was during the Renaissance. One reason for that is in the movie, it had the Mona Lisa (his famous painting). Also, it had two of his amazing inventions, his water shoes and a type of kite. Going back to my point about how art was praised in the renaissance and how everyone deeply enjoyed art, near the end of this film Leonardo wanted to see the boys art. That showed how even the best artist still enjoys everyone else’s art. Also, everyone in the movie was always intrigued by the art. Another valid point is that this whole movie was based on a painting. Art was represented very well, but so was the way of

    At this time, the Renaissance brought back the interest in the natural and secular world after many years of Christian church doctrine. Therefore, the Renaissance is a rebirth to represent the material world, portray the human body accurately and use scientific ways to create linear and atmospheric perspective to reproduce the appearance of the natural world. However, the Renaissance not only occurred in Italy, but also in the Low Countries that are located in the north of the Alps such as Belgium and Netherlands, which is where the piece was painted.

    Renaissance costumes in the beginning were marked by sincerity, charm, and beauty. This gradually became perverted as luxury, and richness, became the most important features, and finally, in the later decades, the Renaissance had become completely dominated by sumptuousness, and show. This trend was evident throughout the Renaissance, in many areas of culture, but is most easily noted and understood in the fashions of the time.

    At first, art seemed to only focus on Jesus Christ and sin, but later on “the essence of the Renaissance” seemed to bring “stronger emotions in the subjects” and more of an “symbolic representation giving way to depictions of recognizable scenes (Document A from Theodore Rabb’s text).” The visual arts seemed to also have a greater detail of “well-defined landscapes, natural folds in drapery, and three-dimensional figures” as stated on Document A. It seems as though the human’s attention to detail seemed to be greater than ever, so that the viewers of the painting can get

    ...a wealth. A new type of consumer, who preferred variety and luxury, began to appear in both the towns and the countryside. People who were unsure if they would be alive the next day wanted to spend their money on fine foods and luxuries. Many lords and wealthy merchants built churches and commissioned religious art, partly in thanks for being spared the horrors of the Black Death. Some of the artistic styles that developed in this period were very influential later during the Renaissance. Some historians suggest that people who invested in culture in hard times financed the Renaissance (Rice 67).

  • The Shift Between The Middle Ages And Renaissance

    The shift between the Middle Ages and Renaissance was documented in art for future generations. It is because of the changes in art during this time that art historians today understand the historical placement and the socio-economic, political, and religious changes of the time. Art is a visual interpretation of one’s beliefs and way of life; it is through the art from these periods that we today understand exactly what was taking place and why it was happening. These shifts did not happen overnight, but instead changed gradually though years and years of art, and it is through them that we have record of some of the most important changes of historic times.

    The Renaissance art that I've included contains a piece by Robert Campin entitled “Annunciation Triptych,” and another work by Fra Filippo Lippi, called “Madonna and Child Enthroned with Two Angels.” In both of these paintings we see some of the typical themes of Renaissance art. For example, Lippi included in his scene a background which wouldn't have necessarily been needed. Really he could have chosen just about anything, like the woods or the sea, that might have been easier to paint. He chose though what appears to be the inside of a building, likely a church. Not only that but he went to great lengths to ensure everything was in perspective, and the lines and angles are straight and sharp. Similarly Campin has also chosen an interior scenes with strong perspective and exacting details. In both of these the artists seem to be capturing an event, much like with a photography in modern times. While both images portray fictional scenes, the artists wanted to capture the moment to tell a precise historical story. They both go to some lengths to include background details which also capture architectural details. To me it seems that they both approached their work meticulously and with reason and mathem...

Florence and everything that made a standard Renaissance city: painters, sculptors, writers, architects, and a vivid culture. Soon all of Europe would follow in Florence’s footsteps and “the setting is so rich, varied, rambunctious, and inventive as Italy in the Renaissance” (Cohen 1). The painters and sculptors defined Renaissance culture and could actually make a living because they were being sponsored.

    The 1950’s Cinderella created by world-renown Disney director, Clyde Geronimi, has been established as the most renown and generic story out of all. In comparison to Charles Perrault’s “Cinderella”, the standard storyline, both have the same concepts. Similarities such as the abuse, the magic, and the happily ever after is present in both exactly. Although, there are also horrifying aspects to discuss about Cinderella and their other versions. Certain acts such as the abuse and mutilation are considered to be unjust and not right, no matter the situation; but perhaps Cinderella was not as virtuous and kind as portrayed in the 1950’s film.

    Throughout history, fairy tales have grown to captivate the hearts and minds of many. A Cinderella Story is set firmly in reality and in the present day; in fact, it's every bit a fantasy as the original story. This film refrains from any allusions to magic, but instead lets serendipitous occurrences provide the engine on which this fairy tale creates its plot. The impression A Cinderella Story is in place of a well-thought out story and characters that anyone could relate to or believe. Although the target audience of the film are teens, females, and romantics, A Cinderella Story can be praised and savored by all audiences because of its ingenious screenplay, acting, and melodic soundtrack.
